Canon - BJC-50

If the Godzilla marketing machine is anything to go by, size is important. Not only for computer-rendered simulated monsters, but also for portable colour inkjet printers such as this. According to Canon, the BJC-50 is the ...

Heavy duty and fast are two completely inappropriate descriptions of this printer. It's quite expensive too. But for those road warriors who simply have to be able to print while on the move, and without a mains power supply, this is what you're...

Excellent Portable Printer

I bought this printer 5 years ago, and have used it heavily at first, and sparingly since. I hardly ever need it, yet when I do, I can simply grab it out my cupboard, switch it on, stick it by the side of my laptop, and print perfect copy - just like ...

Great Portable Printer

I love this little printer. It's great for everyday tasks, just not for photos, but that's not what I bought it for. This little printer is amazingly quick and easy to use and set up. Works great with infrared. I haven't had any problems with it....

Fast. Quality. Compact.

A nice printer and perhaps the best portable printer today

I far consider this printer to be the best portable printer in the market today. The BCJ-50 has a small footprint 11.9W x 1.9H x 4.4D and lightweight (2 lbs with the battery!). It is capable of printing up to 720x360 (equivalent to HP 600x300 mode...

Canon BJC-50 Failure

Purchased the printer to use as I travel 3/4 days per week. Got less than TEN hours of work from the printer when the entire system froze. Attempted to work with Canon's customer service and was jerked around in excess of one hour before I was told I...
